AN advocate of a general overhaul
ing of marriage and divorce laws has
compiled an interesting return show
ing in what states mixed marriages are
lawful. The Michigan codecontains g.
section specially legalizing marriages
between white and colored persons,
and in New York, Massachusetts,
Illinois, Maine, New Jersey, Iowa,
Rhode Island and Vermont the law is
silent concerning them. In Missouri,
Arkansas, Nebraska, South Carolina,
Indiana and North Caroline mixed
marriages are null and void, and in
most OF these states heavy penalties
are imposed on the contracting and
officiating persons. California pro-
hibits the issue of q license for a mar
riage between q white person and q
negro, nulatto or Monaghan. Della
ware forbids such union, and in Ala
bama, Virginia, Mississippi, West
Virginia and Maryland heavy penal
ties and long terms of imprisonment
are incurred by white and colored
persons intermarrying.

An Economical People.
Paris Cor. Boston Courier.

Paris Cor. Boston Courier.
The French people seem to be as
busy as bees in hive. Industry, &C.
tive, earnest, persistent, is the>rule. A
striking feature of this industry is
found in the fact that persons of all
ages and both sexes-gray- haired men
and gray-haired women. wrinkled not
only by age but by toil-are seen in
Paris in g. larger proportion than else
where, all alike engaged in some in
dustrial avocation. Women In the
humber walks of life seem in France
more general heIpmeet than in the
United States. Many French women
are surprisingly hale and strong, In
Paris woman is everywhere toiler as
much as man. If g. burden is to be
borne she Is there to share the bur-
den. If q handcart is to be drawn
she is harnessed with q man and sup
plies her full share OF the strength to
draw the vehicle.
The union of men and women in
the struggle for honest livelihood has
q moral as we'll as material signif-
canoe. It not only accounts for the
fact that this people usually have
cash on hand, but Is the cause of re-
suits still more Important and pre-
cious for out OF this mutuality and
interdependence in bearing the burdens
of life spring honorable social and do
nestle relations. Even among the
humblest and poorest classes in Par
is the family is an institution OF ideal
sacredness. 1t may be true that the
French have no name for home, but
it is not true that the real thing that
constitutes home does not exist in
France. A French home is real
bome-ss priced home. This union of
effort Of which l have spoken tells of
husband and wife, of parent and
child, oflove and affection. 1t tells of
willing sacrifice of individual ease for
the Improvement OF the conditions
of existence for all. No people who
thus love one another and who thus
labor together can justly be regarded
as given over to destruction.
But industry is not the only strong
point in the lives Of the Pa1isians.
| There is here a wholesome spirit oil
wise economy, from which we in Amer.
lea might take lesson. Nothing
here that can be made valuable or
useful to man is permitted to 90 to
waste. There is economy in the use
of time, space and everything else
Many boys and girls wear wooden
shoes. Rags, bones, candle-ends, bits
of meat, fragments of paper, are al
saved and turned to account In one
way or another. There is especia
economy and care in the use of fuel.

why Trainmen Refuse Information

From the New York Commercial Advertiser
the reason that we never ike to
open our mouths about accidents"
said an elevated railroad brake
man this morning when in
terrogated on the subject, sis
not, as many suppose, and as sew
eral newspapers have declared, be-
cause we have been prohibited from
doing SO by Manager H.in. but be-
cause it is simply none of our bust
ness. An accident occurs and some
body comes up and asks, what's the
matter?' and We don't know That
settles it and avoids a conversation
Like as not the fellow that wants to
know is one of these reporters-yo on
can't tell them from other folk-and
he pulls out q note book before you
know it, and jots down what you say,
and then you find you've put your
foot in it. A man employed by a cor
poration wants to understand his
business and nothing more And
that's why, when we're asked ques-
tions we don't know"

The suggestion that mobs should be

erence 80 firearms is not original, but
it is certainly worth consideration.
1t has been tried again and again N
Paris with great success, especially in

ment the!1 derived from the discom-
future of their comrades. Sunday
street trading in London was once
effectually stopped by the aid OF q

The strike Ct New York coopers has
proven failure so far the men are con-
cerned. The return Ct the Jersey City
coopers to work had very depre- sing
effect on the strikers who have not been
able to find work elsewhere or get back in
their old places. The non-union shops
have had quite little harvest in supply
ing the big consumers with barrels. These
have borne the heaviest part of the fight
against the strikers. The men are now

rated. W. Fl. Bailey, of the executive
board. Knights of Labor, threatens to fill
the mill with men from other places, while

from going to work. Bailey is now on the
ground, and President Weihe and Secretary
